Chapter 042: Wine into the Transverse Wave (2)
Chunqin preemptively said: "Mrs. Jin'er's breakfast was sent by Qing'er. This bastard is not in the house now, and I don't know where he has gone. I was also present yesterday, and Uncle Ming instructed him that Mrs. Ming'er's breakfast should not be a little fishy. I don't know how Qing'er explained, as soon as Aunt Feng opened the plate in the morning, it was not greasy pig offal pig water, it was cold and hard to chew. Mrs. Lifo for so many years, how can she eat these? I'm my uncle's maid, but I have to put my wife's affairs at the top of my heart. Madame is unhappy, but I am afraid that the estrangement with the uncle will be widened again......"
The spring piano is here.
How is Zhen's mother puzzled? Mrs. Yu and Uncle Yu, the mother and son, have a weak relationship, and they can't be compared with Aunt Sun and the second master. Chunqin doesn't need to say much.
Autumn lines are on the side, and I understand.
This matter is either Qing'er's negligence, or the people who handle it are confused.
Zhen said: "When Qing'er's bastard comes back, I'll ask for it." ”
Chunqin sighed: "I hate that I can only embroider female workers, and I am not good at cooking." If I can, I'll roll up my sleeves and serve the dishes myself, and I won't work for you. ”
Although Zhen is a small kitchen manager, she is not good at cooking. Zhen will arrange and dispatch, and can make a few good pasta, but it is also unfamiliar to make a few vegetarian meals that are often eaten by monastic laymen. But Madame's breakfast should not be neglected. Zhen rolled up his sleeves and instructed Qiu Wen: "You fight with me." ”
She turned her heart aside.
Zhen originally wanted to make autumn cloth vegetables. But if it doesn't work, won't it be counted on her head again?
Compared with others, Autumn Pattern is only more tender, or come by yourself.
It's all in the kitchen. He is in charge, and in the end, he has to count it on his head, and he can't escape. Zhen lamented that he was careless and neglected management. If this matter reaches the old lady, the old lady will be to blame.
I thought that I had been safe in Shifu for more than ten years, but I lost my hands and feet in my wife's fasting, and I was anxious and afraid of other stewardship jokes. Qiu Wen is a meticulous person, she saw that Zhen's brows were frowning, and she looked helpless about "chasing ducks to the shelves", so she couldn't bear it, so she stepped forward and took the initiative to ask: "Mother Zhen, I can make vegetables." ”
"Will you?"
"I will."
Zhen stared at her a few times. "How did you be?"
Autumn Wen said softly: "That's the reason. When I was ten years old, because my adoptive mother was sick and had a few months of bad luck, she went to a fortune teller and said that I had rushed her because I was not compatible. My adoptive father was still alive at that time. They sent me to a temple and told me to kowtow in the morning and evening, and to help the monks in the temple cook cloth dishes. I remember that although the temple was small, the incense was also prosperous, and there were many pilgrims coming and going. What they ate and drank was made by the laymen in the back kitchen. When I think about it, I can still remember the porridge dishes that pilgrims love to eat. Mom might as well just let me try, most of the time I can't go wrong. ”
Autumn Wen said this, and he plucked up courage.
Madame Jade is a noblewoman. In that temple, there are often a few noble ladies. She was sent by a layman to give fruit to an abbot, and overheard that one of the noblewomen had come out of the palace to teach the female officials.
Autumn grain is young. I don't understand the rest of the words.
Those female officials who teach can enter the palace, needless to say, they all have status. They love to eat, and Mrs. Yu doesn't reject it.
Autumn Pattern is not intended to show a hand, want to scenery. At this moment, if you don't have that ability, you will be self-defeating and ridiculed.
She cares about her uncle.
Uncle's mother is unhappy, and Uncle must not be happy either.
Autumn pattern doesn't want the uncle to be unhappy.
Let's give it a try.
Zhen listened to her words and was silent. Is it possible? I don't know. Madame's tastes are known only to the Feng Fu family. But Feng Fu's family seems to be deliberately trying to embarrass the small kitchen, but he just doesn't come.
If she had opened her mouth, and had spoken of her lady's preferences, things would have been much easier.
Feng Fu's family actually meant to deliberately embarrass the Zhen family.
This brings us to an old story.
At the beginning, Zhen's mother was exiled from the Liu family and entered the Shi Mansion, and the Feng Fu family had not followed his wife to the temple, and the Zhen family was assigned to the Feng Fu family because she was a newcomer, and she taught her for a few months.
Feng Fu's attitude towards the Zhen family was not so good for other reasons, thinking that she was following the old master to fight the autumn breeze, but she didn't expect to leave the old master alone, and live with a cheeky face, and she was still interested in pleasing the old lady, and her character was worried.
In order to protect himself, Zhen also said some insincere words, and indirectly said something to the Feng Fu family.
Over the years, everyone has their own masters.
Zhen has forgotten the past. But Feng Fujia's heart still has some pimples.
Chunqin couldn't wait, and after listening to it, she said: "Qiuwen, since you can do it, then hurry up and do it." If you have stayed in a temple and dealt with lay people, you can't be wrong. Madame's taste is not the most noble, just make it light and simple. ”
Zhen gently patted the edge of the table: "Okay." I'll leave it to you. If you don't succeed, Madame will be unhappy, and I will block it for you. Big deal, this errand is so bad that I don't do it. ”
Because of her decision, she urged Autumn Pattern to act quickly.
On the board, there are vegetarian dishes and fruits. All kinds of vegetarian dishes, all kinds of fruits...... Everything depends on the skillful hands of Autumn Pattern.
Autumn Pattern really moved.
She has a good memory. Five or six years ago, I can still remember all kinds of details. Simplicity does not mean casualness, and light does not mean simplicity. A good vegetarian meal is harder than arranging a hearty meat dish.
After a cup of tea, Akimoru has prepared the vegetables.
This peanut rice is mixed with wild camellia, poured with sesame oil, and put a little salt. If you want to improve the freshness, you can add a little sugar. This tiger skin egg mixed with tofu, black and white, accompanied by soy sauce and vinegar, no need to put other seasonings. This is the same as the sauce radish. There are a lot of pickled radishes in the kitchen, white, red, yellow. Autumn pattern singled out the white radish. White radish is juicy and fresh. Wash it, cut it into slices, then cut it into thin shreds, remove the water, and put only a little salt, it will be very light. There are also eggplants on the board. Akimon peels the eggplant and does not wring out the water to make pickled eggplant. She cut the eggplant into small strips, put them in the steamer and steamed them, took them out immediately, arranged them neatly on a plate, and scooped a small spoonful of mellow soybean tahini.
That's all, and it's too simple.
Qiu Wen thought about it carefully, and at a very fast speed, pinched more than 20 small wontons. There are ready-made fillings in the bowl of the chopping board. Autumn pattern is only filled with vegetarian filling. Those onions, garlic, leeks, and minced leeks can't be put in. Because these are also meaty. Qiuwen made a wonton with three fresh fillings, put it in a pot, boiled it, put it in a bowl, sprinkled with some ginger, and it was very delicious.
At the same time as the wontons were served, Qiu Wen made a small siu mai. There are about a dozen siu mai, very small, but the size of a thumb. The siu mai is filled with glutinous rice. The glutinous rice is mixed with white sugar, and when you bite into it, it is dipping and sweet.
There are also freshly fried fritters in the kitchenette. This stuff is too greasy. But Akimoru still chopped the fritters, put in the boiled bean curd, and added green beans and cabbage, which tasted even better.
Chunqin's eyes widened, watching Qiu Wen be as busy as ever.
She's busy, but she's organized.
Zhen also watched. What a girl, silent, but she can turn out real things, and she is in stock. Thankfully, I saw her.
If she can really help with this favor today, she will definitely be more comfortable in the future.
"Are you done?"
Qiu Wen wiped his hands and said respectfully: "That's about it." If the lady doesn't like it, I'll go and ask for it. ”
Zhen said: "You don't need to go, I'll go." ”
Chunqin asked, "Autumn pattern, do you have anything to add?" ”
"No, the so-called too much."
In Zhen's heart, he silently tasted her words. More than enough is too much. Many people who are old also don't understand what it means. This girl is only fifteen or sixteen years old, can really understand what it means to be excessive?
However, even if she can say it, it can be seen that she is not an ordinary girl.
"Good. Then I'll take it now. ”
In ordinary times, as a first-class maid of Chunqin, talking to Qiuwen, you still have to serve a shelf. This is not that she deliberately made it big, but the rules of Shifu.
Compared with the first-class maid, the third-class maid still has to speak respectfully and even say hello.
But today, because Qiuwen also helped Chunqin, Chunqin and her tone of voice are still much closer.
Chunqin held the plate steadily, and it was time to leave.
Zhen's heart is not at ease again.
"Spring girl, I'll go with you."
Chunqin turned around: "It's okay." Maybe Madame will be looking for you too. ”
At that time, Qiu Wen stood aside, silently looking at the backs of the two, and gently wiped his sweat. Can Madame like to eat it? I don't know.
But at this moment, she wanted to stand up.
After all, if it doesn't go well today, a lot of things have happened inexplicably. Most of the people who don't need to go to the toilet don't know how to make vegetables, and those who can do it have never stayed in the temple.
In the end, we have to fight.
Autumn Pattern clutched her chest, feeling nervous when she thought about it. She thought incredible: how did she have such courage? After that beating, she was locked in the firewood room, although she returned her innocence, she still warned herself that she should be cautious in everything in the future, and never say a word or do one more thing. Just to protect yourself.
But as the days passed, what he said and what he did in his hands became contradictory. In the final analysis, this person has an upward heart. As long as you don't die, you want to live a good life and live a personal life. There are advantages, and there are things that others can't do, so I want to give it a try.
In other words, the Zhen family and Chunqin walked one end at a time, and the other side still couldn't help complaining: "I'm really scared too." This morning, there must be a cat. I'll look it up when I go back. It's such a coincidence, the people who drank the water all had diarrhea, you said it wasn't a human doing, was it a cat doing it? Who is it, the partiality and the small kitchen people can't get by? There is a problem with the water today, and there is a problem with the food tomorrow, and I don't know if I was poisoned the day after tomorrow! ”
